Re: The Monster of Arkyron
Nothing new of substance here, but going through a collection of old adverts and articles, I found the listing pages for this game extracted from the magazine and stored for later entry, which never actually happened. I took a few pictures which I can upload if anyone is still interested. Obviously, the game is now available to play, but the magazine art is still quite amusing.
